I used the Megatron ROM for a long time and it was the most stable ROM ever!
But recently i encountered a problem where i cant play any of my music file though any music player including the Google Play Music.
I wiped my transformer and changed the rom to CM10 but still none of the music player can scan the music content on the device. These players used to work perfectly but suddenly all stopped. Can anyone think of any reason as to why this must be happening.??
Where is the music stored ?

It's stored in /sdcard/Music.
Now i am having an error "android.process.media has stopped" whenever i try to open a music app (Apollo or Play Music).
I've a Xoom and a One S. I have put music on both devices using file transfer from home HDD, Amazon MP3 and more recently Google music.
Some Google music is still stored on the Google music servers some is On Device.
The problem is that Google music doesn't recognise the Amazon or file transfer music. Can I make it do so without uploading to the Google music servers?
Additionally I use the HTC Car app however it doesn't list Google music app as an option. Can I set Google music as the preferred app?
I don't like the Google Play Music application much, so basically what I was wondering was if I could play kept google play music songs and albums in another player such as PowerAmp somehow. From what I have seen there is no way to do this because google incorporates some sort of DRM in all of their music files, which makes sense, because they don't want people just copying and pasting kept music files that they didn't actually buy. I have determined the location of the saved music files to be in "root\data\data\com.google.android.music\files\music" if I am in the wrong spot please let me know. I have pulled the saved music files (MP3's) from this location but can not manage to play them in any music player. I also tried running them through a converter just for the hell of it but the converter instantly crashes when I try converting the file. I don't think there is anything that can be done about this but if anybody has any ideas please let me know!
not possible. stop trying
I don't think you can get them from your phone but you can most definitely download the songs to your computer as regular mp3's. You can then put them on your phone and use any media player.
on a desktop/laptop, open google play music. pick what songs you want, then press download. the downloaded songs that you got using google play music desktop can now be played in other music applications.
Even still...if you have not purchased the song, you cannot download it. All of the music in "My Library" that you've uploaded can be dl'd but not songs you randomly hear and "Add to my Library"
Unless I'm doing something wrong....
You can not download music on a pc unless you have purchased that music. On the android application there is however and option to download music to the device in a hidden location (root\data\data\com.android.google.music\files\music). You can download them, but like I said they are encrypted or have some sort of DRM incorporation so you can not play them anywhere but within the play music application. I don't think it's possible. I just wanted a few opinions on it.
Today, my S7 decided it didn't want to play any of my downloaded music that's saved to the device. My main two sources of playing music is via Amazon Music and Google Play Music, which I save albums/songs to my device. I've tried clearing the cache to both apps, restarting the phone etc. Still no success. Anyone experience this before or have any ideas how to get the downloaded music to play?
Thats very strange.. Do you have any Sound by playing any YouTube Video or an downloaded MP3?
I use Google Play Music too and have no Problem..
Can I use another media player app to access songs downloaded with Google play music?
